A few products - questions about them

[Eelzor]

As I am currently setting up my saltwater nano tank (It just recently finished the cycle), I have seen people use to simply to keep the tank more stable. These are the two products I have seen and I was wondering if anyones had any experiences with them, or if its neccesary and if it is worth it. I already own Seachem Prime.

"Seachem Prime" - http/www.seachem.com/products/pro...ages/Prime.html

"Cycle" - http/www.equarium.com.au/store/de...d=101&cat=3

Tnx.

Well... your links are broke... but I know what you're talking about.

Never used Prime, or any other water conditioner for that matter. We're on well water so I don't have chlorine in my freshwater tanks, and I use RO for my saltwater.. so... no worries about that. I'm sure it's great at what it does.

Now, Cycle.... that stuff is pure crap. I used a whole bottle trying to cycle my 5g minibow.... didn't seem to do anything. Yeah, it can remove chlorine in the water, but don't expect your tank to necessarily cycle any faster with it.

Ahh yes, sorry about the links

Prime - http/www.seachem.com/products/product_pages/Prime.html

Cycle - http/www.equarium.com.au/store/detail.asp?id=101&cat=3

Not that it matters anymore, but just for reference. I won't use cycle - but I have prime and it seems to have a lot of success with stabalising water paras (according to other forums+people), so it wouldn't hurt to try. I don't have anything in my tnak right now except the live rock.

tnx for the help too.
